Contraindications

 

This diagnosis method is irradiating, that is why it is not recommended for:

 

•pregnant women (due to the high risk of fetal malformations);

•iodine-allergic persons;

•renal insufficiency patients (this is why, in case of a CT-scan with contrast medium, the patients need to have the urea and creatinine levels measured beforehand).
